Hi All,
I have been teaching English as a Second Language (ESL) since 2010, both overseas & from the US. Currently residing in the States, I am ready to return to international work. However, I'd like to shift focus from working as an ESL Teacher to international development.
I found a program through the World Bank called Solutions for Youth Employment, which seems a perfect fit. I requested a connection on Linkedin to some associated people, yet I have not received any replies.

I’ve been offered two positions that are great and on the human capital team. For someone in this situation where should I be looking as commensurate with my certifications and experience?
